India is full of heritage sites, beautiful scenery and traditions. There are a lot of things that entice people to travel to India. Some want to explore the cuisine while others want to visit various places and appreciate the culture.
Regardless of your reasons for wanting to visit the country, you can still enjoy the things you’ll find. However, with the excitement you’re feeling, you might not be sure of what you should include in your baggage. Fortunately, Bharat Samachar Hub is here to give you a list of things you should consider bringing to India.
If you want to have an easy and fast packing experience, check out our items checklist below:
Bottled water
When travelling to India, one of the most important items you should bring is a personal water bottle. This will make sure that you’ll have enough water throughout the day of exploring the city.
Additionally, if you ever forget to bring your own water bottle, have at least one water filler to remove all bacteria, amoebas and other dirt in the water. Not only will you avoid feeling sick, but the water filler will also give you peace of mind knowing the water is clean.
India power adapter
Purchase quality adapters before your flight to India to make sure your devices won’t get fried when you plug in the charger. Each country uses different power plugs, and what you got used to in your country might not be the same in India.
Neck wallet
You’ll have a bag or pouch to keep your passport and smartphone safe and secured. During this, you need a quality bag that will fit all the important items you have. A neck wallet is a perfect candidate for keeping your items safe. It’s compact and can store your phone, passport and money.
Female urination device
For men, urinating just about anywhere is one of the easiest things they can do. However, it’s not the same thing for women. They need to find a toilet first before they can urinate and if they do, some toilets are too dirty to sit on. Fortunately, there’s now what they call the female urination device which is used to allow women to urinate while standing with no mess.
Cooling towel
After a long day walking and exploring various places in India, you need to refresh yourself to appear presentable. While you’re out, it’s common to not find a bathroom near you. So the only thing you can do to freshen up is to use a cooling towel. Use a cooling towel every time you feel hot and humid.
Travel backpack
Apart from the neck wallet, you should also have your travel backpack wherever you go. But instead of putting important items there, you should only put essentials that you might need anytime such as extra clothes, extra shoes, an umbrella, a hat and more. Make sure the backpack you’ll choose is sturdy and can last throughout your stay in India.
Waterproof phone case
Protect your mobile phone from water or rain when you visit zoos or ride a boat during your visit to India. Most of the waterproof phone cases you’ll find can fit any size of a smartphone, so you don’t have to worry about buying the wrong one.
